Want to Buy a Panda? Here's What It Takes

Ever wanted to own a panda before? Here's what it's going to cost to get one!
The worldwide Kpop superstars BlackPink were recently in some heat for reportedly mishandling a panda in Korea. But if this happened in Korea why does China have a say in this matter?

    As someone whose father works in one of the top zoos in America, I can say this is 100% true. I can’t say which one because I want him to keep his job lol but I can say that almost every major zoo has looked into pandas at some point or another. A LOT of people want to see a panda so the attendance would go up SIGNIFICANTLY (which is very important because most zoos are suffering a lot right now so if you live near a zoo go support it). Because of this spike in attendance, there is a lot of costs that you wouldn’t normally think about. You have to increase staff, possibly build a separate building, up security (cause there are some people who REALLY like pandas), and build a separate parking garage that on its own could be another million dollars (or more). There would be even more additional costs regarding janitors and that kind of thing because more people means more messes. That being said, if the zoo can afford it it’s 100% worth the investment. China has an iron grip on pandas, but you also have to remember that the overwhelming demand has an even stronger one.

    Yeah I forgot which zoo it was, but after adding just 2 pandas their revenue doubled. Pandas are a great investment

    As animals belong to their respective habitats; zoos belong, like human slavery, to where they come from: the past history, written in books, so we don't forget how cruel humanity can be.

    @@az8557 Pandas being in Zoos is a way for them to be kept alive and out of extinction. It is not entirely a zoo just for people to watch--it is a protected habitat made just for Pandas where they are coaxed into reproducing and becoming independent back into the wild, be protected fr natural predators, from lack of food (bamboos), etc. Humanity has done them right w those institutions.
